Which Iranian players were great for their clubs but couldn't become TM regulars?

[DR Strangemoosh]

Bezik - Top IPL scorer at a time when there were quite a few good forwards but only 7 caps for Iran, 0 goals
Rajabzadeh - has his jersey number retired at his club... 16 caps
Mahmoud Karimi?
Hossein Abdi?

Farhad Majidi has to be another one, for all that he did for Esteghlal.
Also Moharram Navidkia, was so special at Sepahan but after his injury was not succesful in team melli at all.

Navidkia
Haddadi far
Fereidoun Fazli
Mohsen Garousi

From 99-01 we had people who wanted Kia out of TM’s starting lineup because he didn’t perform as well as he did at his club. Never mind that TM had no tactics with zende yaad Pourheydari or Talebi.

Even though I never liked Enayati but he was all time scorer in IPL but never regular in TM.

[BacheLot]

Ansarifard is a more recent example..!!?

[_Navid_]

I don't think Enayati who has played in two Asian cups and Ansarifard who has played in two world cups and 3 Asian cups really count as not being TM regulars.

[Javeed]

Agil Etemadi
Esteven Beitashour

[Dortmund]

I think Kaveh may end up being on this list with the way Allahyar is progressing
